   Here in Southern Illinios there is a awesome Christian Rock band called   
   Solafide.  They have been getting lots of Radio play on christian radio   
   stations, and lots of news coverage.  Which is what brought my attention   
   to them.  They have been opening for bands like Bleach (Tooth&Nail),   
   Holland(Tooth&Nail), GS Megaphone(Tooth&Nail), Cool Hand Luke(Floodgate),   
   Number One Gun(Floodgate), Sanctus Real, and Slingshot 57!   
      
   They are awesome musicians, awesome people, and have thier hearts set on   
   serving Jesus Christ.   
      
   I ask you to check out some of their music at http://www.mp3.com/Solafide1   
      
   I'm sure they are always looking for ways to expand thier services to   
   area's outside of S. Illinois and surrounding areas.  Their live show   
   consists of some newer amazing songs not found on the cd, but the cd and   
   mp3's give a good idea of what they are like.   
      
   If you feel that you'd like them to do a youth service, or have them   
   participate in a concert or festival you are hosting contact:   
      
   Phone: 618-357-2838   
      
      
   Here is a bio clip they put up on their site:   
      
   "It's high-energy rock 'n roll," says lead singer/guitarist   
   Brandon Ross when asked about their sound. "We do what we can to stay   
   away from labeling ourselves, though. So call us what you want, we're   
   just playing music." With influences ranging from bands like Bleach and   
   Switchfoot to Delirious and U2, Solafide's come a long way since their   
   beginning in Fall of 2000. "We're definitely still maturing musically   
   and lyrically," Brandon says. Even after the recent release of their   
   full-length album "Anthem for the Church Camp Junkie" (independent),   
   the Solafide boys keep pushing forward. "The crowd seems to really like   
   the music. And that, of course, is very important to us. But we can't   
   help but look ahead. We've continued to write, and are very excited   
   with what we've come up with. And as long as we're still able to move   
   forward as a band, we'll keep playing." With a constantly growing fan   
   base and a great live show, Solafide is an act you don't want to miss.   
   "When people leave a Solafide show, we want them to feel uplifted,   
   encouraged, maybe even have a different perspective on things. We don't   
   want to just give them something to talk about, but something to think   
   about, too."
